The problem with Vita is that it can't play PSP games.
The problem with 3DS is that it can play DS games.

It can play psp games...



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.

Hmmm I think this is profound. I have a lot of PSP games on my Vita but would like to have more. unfortunately Sony didn't have this kind of forsight and Devs are pretty finicky with DD versions of their games. Yet I can see a repeat of PS2-PS3 happening. Sony let PS2 go on for FAR too long. I get that PS2 was profitable but every PS2 sold was another reason to delay PS3 purchase. Many held on to PS2 for dear life but sony should have cut the cord a long time ago. I think that method of going into a new gen was paramount with 360 and Wii success.

I just think they should stop all development on PSP and help devs move it to Vita(not that its really sony's choice or anything).



      

      

      

Greatness Awaits

PSN:Forevercloud (looking for Soul Sacrifice Partners!!!)

I would like to see some RPG's that aren't JRPGS.



well 3 types of games

-most important is platformers like tear away and littebigplanet
-second comes RPG's and JRPG's like soul sacrifice and final fantasy
-third action games like uncharted and god of war.

i honestly dont think first person shooters will help the Vita much, they should stop focusing on them and bring more games like tear away

Warrior's Lair is one. I might play this if there is a way to make it less top down-y. I hate birds eye view games usually(except Dead nation, that was awesome).

That includes downloadables. The prices of their Vita memory cards is a barrier to push their downloadables.

People who wanted to download games will want the biggest card(s). These people also likely to use their Vita as multimedia device.

It a huge barrier for those that wanted to use the Vita as a media player.

It would have been more successful if they sold the Vita at $300 but uses the SD cards. They can then justify buying multiple memory cards for all their needs, including a full library of SNES games.



I think it needs some more good Action/Adventure and RPG games
